I think it might be okay for the artist if they rehost it to imgur. A lot of people on Reddit only click on links if they open up to Imgur, or only open with RES. And then when that happens, it doesn't get much attention or upvotes.
But if people rehost it, and it gets 2000 upvotes, tons of people will see it. There will be people who chuckle and move on, and there will be people who chuckle and say "Huh... I wanna see who made this, so I can see more of their work!"

That's not how plagiarising works... It would be different if the OP took credit for his work (which he didn't). He is posting something that is INTERESTING, something that is acceptable on reddit, a site for people to look at INTERESTING THINGS ALL OVER THE INTERNET. it would also be different if there wasn't a website at the bottom which in that case yeah, put the website in the comments. OP's not stealing anything, you are just a dumbass.

The reason that giving the artist's website traffic is important is that many webcomic artists are supported by ads on their site. Giving their site the traffic generated by interest in their work allows them to get this ad revenue. If you rehost it, then only those who actively seek out the site end up there.

The second part of the rule, "preferably an imgur link in the comments", allows for if reddit's traffic takes down the site.

I don't think people should be downvoting you, I think that someone should have explained why you were wrong.

The reason I downvote is because 99 out of a 100 times, OP is a faggot and keeps arguing regardless of whether they're wrong or right, and it really gets on my nerves. Haven't you had that experience before?

I just said the whole argument was FROM the first comment! God, do you read?! The whole reason you won't drop this now pointless debate is BECAUSE of the first comment! I said if the website is at the bottom, it's unecessary to post the site in the comments. You responded by saying it's plagiarism for reasons still unspecified. Thanks to spaghetti's comment I understand it a little more clearly.

He was a Croatian Partisan who was executed during World War II and posthumously declared a People's Hero of Yugoslavia.

He was captured on 24 February 1942 by Axis forces and subsequently hanged in Valjevo, occupied Yugoslavia, on 22 May 1942. As the rope was put around his neck, Filipović defiantly thrust his hands out and denounced the Germans and their Axis allies as murderers, shouting "Death to fascism, freedom to the people!". He urged the Yugoslav people to resist and implored them to never cease resisting.
